Immediate Need Fund

Betterment created The Immediate Need Fund (INF) so that recipients can be given direct aid when they need it the most. The INF is a very important part of the Betterment mission, as it allows us to support people in need when we do not have time to have an event or raise money to help them. Donations to this fund will make a significant difference in our ability to help many more individuals in the future. Betterment has already given over $30,000 to Immediate Need recipients and keeps $5,000 in our reserves so that we are always ready to help people! We are currently creating an endowment to ensure the future and growth of the INF.
